| Lake Superior in Michigans Iron country 1800's
I got as far as the Sault, and endeavored, without
success, to get passage by the little schooner "Merchant," which was the
only craft just then going up the lake. I had no money, and they would
not let me work my way. Had I got passage, it is safe to say, some one else
would be giving you this narrative to-day. The schooner was never heard
of afterwards; she went to the bottom, with all on board.
